Bichette has key double as Blue Jays beat Yankees 4-1 and extend home win streak to record 11 games
Toronto won 10 straight at its former home, Exhibition Stadium, from July 21-Aug. 3, 1985.
Alejandro Kirk had two hits as the AL East-leading Blue Jays won for the 17th time in 21 games.
Since a three-game sweep of San Diego in late May, the Blue Jays have won 23 of 27 at home.
Yankees third baseman Oswaldo Peraza and shortstop Anthony Volpe both made throwing errors that led to runs in the fifth.
Volpe has 12 errors this season. San Francisco shortstop Willy Adames entered play Monday with a major league-leading 13.
Giancarlo Stanton led off the fourth with his fifth homer, but that was all the Yankees got against Gausman (7-7). The right-hander allowed four hits, struck out eight and walked two, winning for the first time since June 26 at Cleveland.
Brendon Little got one out in the eighth, leaving with two aboard. Yariel Rodríguez came on and retired Stanton and Jasson Dominguez.
Jeff Hoffman struck out the side in the ninth for his 24th save in 28 chances.
New York's Carlos Rodon (10-7) allowed four runs (two earned) and six hits in five innings.
The Blue Jays intentionally walked Aaron Judge after Trent Grisham's two-out double in the third. Gausman then struck out Jazz Chisholm Jr.
Key moment
George Springer walked to begin the fifth and Vladimir Guerrero Jr. singled before both scored on Bichette's double into the left-field corner.
Key stat
Toronto's Davis Schneider hit nine foul balls in a 14-pitch at-bat against Rodon in the fifth that ended with a popup to Volpe.
Up next
Blue Jays RHP Max Scherzer (1-0, 4.70 ERA) is scheduled to start Tuesday against Yankees RHP Cam Schlittler (1-0, 5.06).

Record crowd expected at Bristol for the MLB Speedway Classic between the Braves and Reds
Workers still have some finishing touches to put on the field inside the racetrack at Bristol Motor Speedway, and officials are expecting a record crowd in a week to watch the Cincinnati Reds play the Atlanta Braves in the MLB Speedway Classic on Aug. 2. 'We can't wait for next Saturday night ... when that first pitch is thrown out and the stands are full,' Jerry Caldwell, Bristol's president and general manager, said Friday. 'We'll be setting records, we'll be having attendance records. We'll announcing all those details later on, but we'll be there, I know we will.' The largest crowd ever to see a baseball game was 115,300 for a March 2008 exhibition between the Red Sox and Dodgers at Los Angeles Coliseum. Bristol packed in 156,990 for the Battle of Bristol college football game in 2016. Officials showed off the work Friday with a baseball field now sitting on top of the infield inside the half-mile bullring where cars and a building once sat for NASCAR races. Murray Cook, an MLB field and stadium consultant with BrightView, said he's excited to be at this point in the process of building a ballpark. Final touches still remain for the clay along with all the padding and branding, which should be in place by Wednesday at the latest. Crews also held a light check Thursday night to make sure the Musco lights meet MLB standards. 'We've had a blast building this,' Cook said. Even though the Braves play the Reds in Cincinnati on Aug. 1, the day before the Bristol game, fans are being encouraged to settle in for the big party planned both outside and then inside the racetrack for game day. Caldwell said fans should show up by noon on game day to enjoy the attractions outside the track, including music, a 110-foot Ferris wheel, a food truck row, pitching tunnels and batting cages and team mascots. Once fans head inside, Tim McGraw and Pitbull are scheduled to perform. Demolition started in early June with heavy construction now in high gear to transform Bristol Motor Speedway into a ballpark for the first MLB game in Tennessee. This game features grandstand seating for fans along both baselines. Both teams will be wearing NASCAR-inspired uniforms with details like flames on the brim of the Braves' caps and a finish-line checkerboard for the Reds' caps. The MLB Speedway Classic also will be included in the 'MLB The Show 25' video game after an update scheduled for Tuesday. Caldwell said the project has been long in the works. 'We're ... thrilled to be able to welcome everyone to Bristol and partner with Major League Baseball, the state of Tennessee and so many others to be able to pull this off,' he said. ___ AP MLB: and AP auto racing:
